Windows 10 Firewall Control is closed source software but that’s not a problem in my opinion because I haven’t heard anything negative about the product nor was there a leak which showed that the developer couldn’t be trusted. The original name was Vista Firewall Control and got renamed to Windows 10 Firewall Control in order to avoid some confusion. The program itself is underrated, that’s for sure, it does have a complete documentation together with an F.A.Q. The official forum should answer the rest of the questions.

If the previous sibling does not exist anymore, the related Programs list entry is silently removed.When a mutable installer changes its path Windows10FirewallControl detects sibling applications automatically (if the option is checked) and adds (lists) new sibling application with the zone applied to the previous sibling.Settings::Protect Sibling applications automatically allows to partially (or completely) avoid multiple entries in the Programs list, such as (1) (2) etc.Settings::Protect System applications automatically duplicates the same setup option for the runtime management.Programs::Time column reflects last changed time.

The program has a trial period, keep this in mind because you need a key (license) in order to use the program. There several versions available, the Plus version and the Cloud version are the versions with the most functions. The latest download links for the final versions are always available under the same URL. So, enough introduction – let’s check it! In this review, we will check if it’s worth to buy it and how if it competes against WFC by Binisoft. Windows 10 Firewall Control is a paid firewall solution by Sphinx Software.
